Creative Writing Summer Camp

Booth Library’s Creative Writing Summer Camp signups are open for young people in Newtown entering grades 6-9. Kathleen Kudlinski, a master teaching artist of the State of Connecticut and author of three dozen books for young adults and children, is returning to lead the summer sessions for young people. Camp will meet from 3:30 to 5:30 pm for rising grades 6 and 7, and from 6 to 8 pm for rising grades 8 and 9, on Mondays, July 7, 14, 21 and 28 and August 11. There is no class scheduled for August 4, and a makeup session will run August 18 if needed.

Participants are expected to attend all five sessions. Each session will allow time for writing and sharing stories as well as creative activities and one-on-one communication.

Call Margaret Brown, Young Adult Librarian, at 426-4533, for more information.
